Marshmallow

Enjoy the benefits of healthy lungs and digestion with the pure, all-natural power of Marshmallow.

Marshmallow root naturally contains mucilage, which provides demulcent (soothing) effects on the digestive, respiratory and intestinal systems.

Marshmallow's high mucilage content—25-30% polysaccharides (mucilage) and 25-30% starch—account for its soothing effects, especially for the mucous membranes.

Since the stomach and intestines are lined with these protective membranes, marshmallow eases irritation in the gastrointestinal tract and may help counteract excess stomach acid.

Marshmallow's tissue-soothing effects have also been used in traditional herbal medicine to relieve dry coughs and inflammation in the mouth, throat and lungs. It has also been used historically for respiratory support to loosen and expel excess mucus.

In addition, marshmallow is considered mildly laxative and is often used for various intestinal conditions. Marshmallow contains pectin fiber that is capable of carrying a host of substances out of the body to expel substances that often collect or stick to the mucous membranes.

Some research suggests that marshmallow root may act as a natural and mild diuretic to flush out excess fluid. It may also help relieve irritation of the urinary tract and bladder.

Marshmallow root is a perennial herb native to Europe, Asia and Northern Africa. It was a traditional medicine long before the French turned it into a tasty treat.

Greek, Roman, Egyptian and Arabian practitioners used this plant for a variety of health needs. Ancient Egyptians used it to help with respiratory concerns, but they reserved its use solely for the gods and royalty.
